And I began to truly itch with the excitement of knowing that in a mere twelve days, we will be moving into our new house, which also boasts excellent views of El Misti:

Yesterday afternoon, we went back to the house with our contact from the company, the owner, and the real estate agent, and did another walkthrough, looking at things that need fixing/installing, and discussing what needs to be done before we can move in. We agreed that we would move in March first, and I'm very pleased so far with their willingness to accommodate us for various things that we need done in the house. We will also have twenty days after we move in to report anything that is missing. The homeowner has young children and is leaving behind her baby bath, and some larger toys that are in the room that Joffre will have.
I can't wait to get a camera and post some pics of the house. Heck, I can't wait to have company in the house!
Then last night we had dinner at the home of the Canadians I met last week. It was a great meal, and their ten-year-old son played patiently with Joffre, who is now going on and on about "my friend." It will be good to find him some more kids his own age to play with. We do go to the club with relative frequency, but we haven't seen the same kids twice there so far, and so there's been no chance to build a friendship. Apparently preschool starts mid-March, and there are rumours about a bilingual one that takes three-year-olds, so we'll see if we can get him in there. In the meantime, we just have to go to the club as much as possible!
